Trouble in former stables and fields (7)
I believe the answer is:
meadows
'fields' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'trouble in former stables' is the wordplay.
'trouble' becomes 'ado' (I've seen this before).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'former stables' becomes 'mews' (I've seen this before).
'ado' put within 'mews' is 'MEADOWS'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for meadows that I've seen before include "Paddocks" , "Fields of grass" , "As mowed (anag)" , "Grassy fields" , "where you find grasses" .)
